Bartholomew #327

Bartholomew


And who were you Bartholomew
  That you were mentioned with the twelve of His
Disciples or His chosen few
   Who knew and knew Him well as who He is
And was and just because the honor lured
  You to His gaze
Still wanting more to know His ways
   His wonderment, His pure
     Amaze.

How could He know? How did He see
  Beyond the outer shell of earthly things
An honest man beneath a tree
  Shout, “Thou Son of God! Thou Israel's King!”
And not you scold but in you hold a gift
  For further days
Of fervor felt and fervor raised
  And fervor meant to lift
     in Praise.

God bless,
Lighthouse Bob
